A couple of points.
1. DEBKA has never been right about anything that I am aware of.
2. That picture is of the USS Enterprise transiting the Suez Canal.
3. You do not “park” and aircraft carrier, you “anchor” it, and when you do it is basically useless for launching anything other than helicopters.
4. The US Navy would not allow any warship, much less the USS Enterprise, to come within eyesight of an enemy flotilla, much less “park opposite” one.
Right you are.
“You do not park and aircraft carrier, you anchor it, and when you do it is basically useless for launching anything other than helicopters”

Could we roll a harpoon out on deck and put the pointy end toward the Iranian ships?
If we can’t launch aircraft?
